Woow I ordered all of the 2016 50th Anniversary coin bags in one go around 4 weeks ago and have yet to receive them. I hope it takes another couple of months so I get a free gift too! :yahoo:

My Parra coins should arrive sometime this week after waiting 7weeks for them.
I would prefer an extra coin or two instead of a fridge magnet as an apology gift :)
Anyway when they finally get here it will be the first time that I will have actually seen one of these coins "In Hand" :)

You poor thing! I've seen so many of them now that I'm almost sick to death of them.

RAMINT is still selling Paralympic coins through telephone orders with a (claimed) limit of ten per customer!

I reckon that's what they should have done with the Changeover coins, to prevent them from selling out.

Really? Are they on the site too? I've looked a few times over the last few weeks but haven't seen them.

What is it you do not understand about the words "through telephone orders"?

I've already got what I need, but the Changeover coins are almost always listed as "Temporarily Unavailable", which isn't very fair on those who haven't had a chance to order them yet.

The only changeover coins still available are the $1 and $2 coins and these seem to be always going from available to temporarily unavailable all the time.
If you haven't already got the other coins in this series then I think you are out of luck getting them from RAM.

Found 3 Paralympic coins today in a bag of $200. Wasn't expecting any at all so I'm pretty happy :ok:
